Courgettes what can I make?
Comments

I like them grated into mince dishes like bolognese or a cottage pie. Also courgette frittas are great too with some feta chucked into the mix. Wish I'd picked some up when I was in the supermarket now!Emergency Fund - £8572.39 / £10,000 :: Mortgage OP 2025 - £LISA 24/25 - £3200 / £4000 :: NSD 2025 - 2 / 150 :: Books Read: 1 / 52 :: Decluttering - 4 / 1000Engaged 9th December 2010 :: Married 29th October 2015 :: Bought a House 13th January 20170

Sliced and then under the grill with a little oil brushed on. Layered with a tomato sauce. Cheese and breadcrumb topping. Yummy. Full meal or as a vegetable side.
Also noticed on 'mortgage free in three' a lovely slow cooker chutney. Looks really simple.0 -
Courgette Chips
Dip courgette sticks (cut into batons) in egg, and then in breadcrumbs laced with rosemary, season with salt and pepper and fry until golden brown (or grill/bake on an oiled baking tray)
Dip in mayo (with a squeeze of lemon juice, if you have any)
Courgette fritters. Recipe on BBC Good Food - 1 grated courgette, 2 eggs, 50g flour, 50 ml egg. Makes a batter which you fry into little fritters. Yummy.
You could add herbs/chilli to spice it up a bit.
If you're really concerned about not using them, grate the rest and freeze, then you can use it to bulk up mince in future!0 -

AGirlCalledJack blog has a great recipe for courgette and lemon bread. I've making a couple of loaves at a time and eating one, freezing one. It's kind of a something out of nothing recipe.0

I always make courgette soup- chop an onion, couple of spuds and dice 2-3 courgettes and fry off in a little butter, add 500ml of stock and boil. Blend to finish, makes a lovely soup with a delicate flavour and always goes down well here! Freezeable too0
